Day 3: La Hoyada - Summit - La Hoyada
=== Day 3: La Hoyada - Summit - La Hoyada ===
An extensive journey is undertaken, which ascends towards the "Lomas Amarillas-Plata" ridge (km 8.8 - 4910) marked at the "Portezuelo bajo" waypoint. Then we ascend with more slope towards the great amphitheater that ends in the pass that separates the Silver hill from Vallecitos hill (km 9.7 - 5210m). Already observed [[Mount Monte Aconcagua]]. Attention, although visually one already feels close to the summit at this point, there are still 3 or 4 hours of promotion.
There is a long and exhausting section that climbs in a zigzag along a slope that passes behind the so-called "false Silver". From that point, it continues to the somital edge. A few meters from the summit are the remains of a helicopter of the Mountain Rescue Brigade of the Argentine Air Force.
Once at the summit (km 13.1 - 5930m), there are numerous memories of the mountaineers who preceded us. From the summit, they dominate the aforementioned Aconcagua to the North and the [[Volcán Tupungato Volcano]] to the West.
